Starbucks fans 'heartbroken' as they notice one thing 'missing' from autumn menu
Starbucks has released its autumn menu, and while many are excited for the return of the iconic Pumpkin Spiced Latte, some fans are devastated by a 'missing' drink Starbucks enthusiasts are all echoing the same sentiment after the coffee chain unveiled its autumn lineup. Despite it being only August, a number of brands are already preparing for the changing of the seasons with autumn now on the horizon. While we are currently in the midst of peak iced coffee weather, countless customers are eagerly anticipating their first pumpkin spiced latte of the year. The popular beverage is scheduled to hit Starbucks outlets later this month alongside a collection of fresh and returning seasonal drinks and snacks. Last year, the official UK launch date for the pumpkin spiced latte was August 22 - a full month ahead of previous years. In 2025, the beverage is expected to arrive slightly later than before. According to Starbucks, their renowned "PSL" will make its comeback to US branches from August 26, with the drink expected to be available around the same period in the UK. The autumn selection typically remains on offer until early November. Alongside the beloved PSL, customers will also be able to savour a Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew, an Iced Pumpkin Cream Chai, and a Pecan Crunch Oatmilk Latte. A fresh addition launching this year is the Pecan Oatmilk Cortado. Another newcomer on the menu is the Italian Sausage Egg Bites. According to Speculite on Instagram, patrons can also indulge in the Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffin and the Pumpkin and Pepita Loaf Slice. "My sweet beautiful iced pumpkin chai," remarked one person on the post. "Running for the Pumpkin Chai," another enthusiast agreed. A third person wrote: "Can't wait. Wish they had this all year round." While patrons are buzzing about the new menu offerings, there's a noticeable absence that has left many feeling a bit sour - the Apple Crisp Oatmilk Macchiato. One customer lamented: "Apple Crisp is my lifeline, please don't discontinue." Another pleaded: "Please bring the apple drinks back!" while another chimed in with: "I need Apple Crisp,". "The Apple Crisp was everything," read one of the comments, and yet another fan echoed: "All I care about it the Apple Crisp,". Meanwhile someone claiming to be a Starbucks employee shared some insider info: "I work at Starbucks and I can confirm that the Pumpkin Muffin is coming back, we have always had the Pumpkin Loaf. If your store doesn't then they haven't got shipment for them. "And the apple drinks will not be coming back." Starbucks has been contacted for an update.
